New angle March 1st 2005 Sensors UK has introduced a range of inclinometers that are housed in an IP65 case for direct mounting and measurement of horizontal or vertical angles.
The SB series uses a capacitive liquid-based technique and offers standard ranges from ±10 to ±80°.
A supply voltage of between 8 and 30VDC is required. Internal conditioning and amplification electronics give a rationalised output 4-20mA that is linear and proportional to the measuring angle.
Non-linearity is claimed to be within 0.1% of full scale output and resolution is to within 0.01°.
Optional potting increases the environmental protection to IP67 and gives increased vibration protection, allowing the instrument to operate in all but the harshest of environments. More articles from Sensors UK Ltd: |
